ROADS (SPEED LIMIT SIGNS)

May I also congratulate my right hon. Friend on showing that the Government are really going on at a mile a minute, as opposed to their predecessors. Is he aware that the ordinary people of the country are delighted to hear that their views are being listened to by the Government?
